Think about what is being said and not who is saying it. The truth has nothing to do with the timing of the words. Is there more validity in things said in the distant past, which have since become an indisputable convention, or in innovative ideas instead? Think about what is being said and not when it was said. Listen carefully and with extreme openness to everything that is said. Use your discretion. And in the end, after you have listened and thought it over, you will decide. The decision is yours.
